Trunk Road Incident Support Service Operative

Your New Role

We have a fantastic opportunity for a Trunk Road Incident Support Service Operative (TRISS Op) to join our dynamic team in our NMC SW account, at our Perth depot.

Our NMC North Account which was awarded to us in 2022 is to support Transport Scotland. This account will deliver improved levels of service to the trunk road network, aiming to ensure consistent, predictable and reliable journeys for road users. Works will cover maintenance, road safety, bridges and structures and discrete improvement schemes whilst taking into account the Scottish Government’s climate change and sustainability targets. We’ll also deliver the implementation of an enhanced winter and incident response service, improved communications as well as delivering new technologies for better management of trunk network assets and maintenance activities. 

The standard hours of work are 42 hours per week working shifts 4 on 4 off based on dayshift 06:30 – 18:30.

You will be responsible for:

• Responding to notifications of incidents received from various Operational Partners, ensuring they are then deemed safe, through the application of temporary traffic management.
• Relieving congestion and removing hazards from traffic lanes and hard shoulders, providing high visibility patrols on the routes, and arranging for immediate repairs where the Trunk Road infrastructure is damaged.
• Aiding broken down vehicles, including assisting them to safe locations and offering fuel.
• Monitoring and reporting unusual or unexpected activity, disruption and/or congestion.
• Providing constant communication between the site, Operational Partners, and the Incident Liaison Officers
• Assessing the scene and securing the attendance of additional or specialist resources where necessary
